Dateline: Thursday 30th September 2021

Hi and welcome to my Personal Blog.



Let us begin with an apology for the missing couple of day's posts, but these days were taken up with hospital visits and also our Wedding Anniversary (Sept.28th)

47 years ago I married Alison, the love of my life!  

We were married by Rev'd John Flory in the Parish Church of St.Chad, Patchway, Bristol and then we had the reception at Stanshawes Court Hotel, Yate, Bristol.

It was a brilliant day celebrating with family and good friends and then it was followed by a Honeymoon in Paignton.

Life then rambled on quite happily although there were a few ups and downs, there were  some fantastic moments plus a few horrendous ones, some comedy and some tragedy. 

We have been blessed with 2 brilliant daughters who make us so proud and a little boy who didn't actually make a successful transition from womb to world but he is still and always will be our son.

Eventually after navigating the twists and turns of life's journey we ended up living back in the West Country which is where we are today.

Alison is waiting patiently (and uncomfortably, I must add) for a hip replacement and once that is done she tells me that she is not going back to work (as a carer) and if that is what she wants to do then I will support her in that decision. 

I have no plans to stop doing what I do (photography, personal coaching, broadcasting and podcasting), as well as working full time in the entertainment industry.

So all in all life is good, I have a great woman at my side, great family and wonderful friends.

oooOOOooo

06/09/21 My Ideal Day

Hi and welcome I hope that you have had a wonderful weekend - I know that I have!   So I thought having had such a great time I would devise a list of things that make up my ideal day! I wake up naturally and take my time preparing to greet the day ahead. I visit the bathroom, wash and clean teeth and spend 5 minutes in contemplation I dress and make a cup of coffee then  I write both my journal and my gratitude list  I visit my to do list and start working towards completing the things I have to do I clean my cameras ready for the photo shoot(s) that are booked I write any emails that I need to send    and read over my blog notes / planner    and having done this I start writing the new post After I am happy with that it is time to have lunch and then say bye to Alison if she is not coming with me. I (or We) leave the house and choose which vehicle we will use - if it is a country shoot we will probably take the Range Rover but if it is a town / city ...
